His four iron-black horses are in very fine condition ;
The six reins are in the hand [of the charioteer] .
The ruler's favourites ,
Follow him to the chase .

The male animals of the season are made to present themselves ,
The males in season , of very large size .
The ruler says , ' To the left of them ; '
Then he lets go his arrows and hits .

He rambles in the northern park ;
His four horses display their training .
Light carriages , with bells at the horses' bits ,
Convey the long and short-mouthed dogs .
